Teleporter

Around the light pillar coming from the teleporter, both of them thought about Xiao Fa's words.

¨You want to do it again?¨ Wang Geming asked, not ordering like he had been doing so many times before.

¨Sure, you can lead your people here while I'm away¨ Xiao Fan was confident that this teleporter would lead to the outside, to him it made no sense that this would lead to a trial space or something since it was so close to the tower, so he could take the risk.

¨No need to worry, taking a risk for me will always have benefits¨ Wang Geming could see that Xiao Fan could do it, but at the same time, he saw his facial expression.

Xiao Fan wasn't hundred per cent sure of this working so, yeah, he did have some concerns, though he didn't focus on them much ¨You want me to send a message to someone or bring something here?¨ He instead focused on if the Prince had something that needed to be delivered if this teleporter did what they were hoping for.

¨Hmm¨ Wang Geming took a few second to think of something ¨When you get there contact my mother¨ He then took enough time for Xiao Fan to ask.

¨What do I say to her?¨

Yet he didn't get a reply in a timely manner as Wang Geming was thinking of the words ¨Anyone have a paper and a pen?¨ Instead of talking to Xiao Fan, he chose to ask for a paper and a pen, for a letter most likely.

¨I have!¨ Came a voice from the group of soldiers gathered around them.

¨Bring it¨ Wang Geming said, and then moments later a man gave him the paper and pen that he had been carrying in the case if he needed to write a last will.

Then a few moments more of Wang Geming writing something down onto the paper was Xiao Fan ready to jump back into that pit that housed the so-called teleporter.

¨It shouldn't take me more than two days to get back¨ Xiao Fan ready to go told his expected schedule to Wang Geming.

¨One day out there and a second to come back from the side? Good, if you aren't back by then I'll drop another person to look for you¨ Wang Geming said that if something would happen, he could expect help in three days.

'That's a long time...' Was Xiao Fan's opinion on this, yet doing so was the correct thing. Then just about to drop down Xiao Fan remembered something ¨One more thing¨ He said and got the attention of the Prince who was leaving.

¨What?¨

¨Remember to hide this pit somehow. You know why¨ Xiao Fan didn't go into detail why Wang Geming should hide this light pillar that might be the most important thing in their possession, valuing even above the tower.

Wang Geming got the idea anyhow, but as he was confirming it, Xiao Fan had already jumped into he light that was coming out from the pit, his body stationary in the air for a few seconds before it disappeared from everyone's sight.

¨What happened to Mask?¨ One of the men under Wang Geming, seeing this asked aloud the thing everyone else was thinking of currently.

¨Something of great importance is what you need to know, for now. And yes, start building a trap door to that pit and then fill the top with dirt, we don't want anyone else getting a hint of this thing¨ Wang Geming got back to his Prince mode in which ordering came to him as second nature.

Meanwhile, Xiao Fan having taken another teleporter going somewhere was in a pickle, in a big one, for it seemed that he had been moved underground. He didn't think much as he realised that being in such a situation wasn't too good, and to get out of this situation alive, he needed to act quickly, before he ran out of air.

When ported here had had just the amount of space that his being took, but being a cultivator moving around a little had made him enough space that he could start to dig up while moving the ground he was digging from top of him to his feet.

Still, it wasn't too fun seeing as he had no way to know how much dirt he needed to move before he could get more air, also to add into his predicament, he wasn't getting any more air than he had before jumping into the teleporter.

With these facts, one could think that Xiao Fan wasn't feeling too hot, and indeed he was franticly using his hands to dig the ground and move any rocks, he came across during his attempt find the surface.

'Should have guessed this, should have guessed this' He thought while digging. In his mind, one should have expected that if the other side was inside the ground would the other side be like that too. Yet to his luck he saw how the teleporters light soon came in contact with another light, a light that made Xiao Fan joyous, for the new light he saw was the natural light coming from the sun.

A few moments more Xiao Fan found his head out of the ground and could now see around him and where he was. He realised that this place was the near the spot he had exited the carriage, so he was very close to the entrance into the Tomb of the Four Ancient Ones.

However, understanding where he was, he immediately looked around him to see if anyone had seen him coming out of the ground, and to his luck, he saw no one. The place was actually empty 'Where is everyone' He even thought that no one being here was a little weird, but then again, it being to his advantage he got out of the hole and stamped it a few times to fit back into the scenery.

Next minding his own business, Xiao Fan walked out from the close approximate of the place for good measure before taking out the open letter Wang Geming had given him, and although he was said not to open the letter, he did so. Like he wasn't going to open this letter?

Reading through it, he seeing nothing concerning his safety folded the letter back like Wang Geming had folded it and continued his way towards the venue, his target? Wang Geming's mother of course. The letter had good words concerning him, so of course, he would take the letter to her.

This time when getting up the hill he didn't see a lot of people, mostly guards, and older people who had come to see off their youths who had rushed into the tomb from which no one had come out of.

The mood here wasn't too happy. Not happy at all, there was literally no happy faces amongst the people here. Nevertheless minding this a little Xiao Fan walked down the hill and then towards the stage.

¨Where I can find the mother of the Second Prince?¨ When he got to the stage, he asked this question from one of the soldiers guarding the stairs that lead to the stage.

The guard seeing a man in the condition in which Xiao Fan was in batted his eyes a few times ¨What?¨ He wasn't getting what was happening at all. To him, some random bum had come to him and then asked to see the Queen? Why not the Empress or the Emperor straight away!

¨I bring her a letter. A letter from the Second Prince before he ventured inside the Tomb of the Four Ancient Ones¨ He stated what he was here for.

¨Why should anyone believe that?¨ The man asked the obvious question since there was no way this would be true.

¨I like my head very much so. If I'm in the wrong do you think I get to keep it?¨ Xiao Fan said this back to the guard, who hearing this seemed to be convinced.

Sure this was weird, but like the bum had spoken, he would be very dead if he was messing with such things, or in the current situation, being dead might be a light punishment. Messing with the Royal Family might not be the best thing to do today.

¨I never let you in¨ Still, the guard letting him go through didn't take any responsibility for what would this bum do with his life.

¨Thank you¨ Xiao Fan didn't speak more as he walked past the man letting him go up the stairs while cleaning his robes a little.

Soon up the stairs, Xiao Fan could see around twenty women and one man in the middle of them all 'The Emperor had brought his whole harem to see this?'

Yes, indeed the Emperor of the Bald Eagle Dynasty had been accompanied by all the members of his harem who had brought him children, children that were now stuck inside the tomb. A decision that had brought him a lot of comforting duties currently as all of those women were now weeping for their children.

Nevertheless, Xiao Fan on a mission approached this group of women and then waited as long as he needed for them to speak to him. He wasn't going to put his head into this mess, for the fear that the man would slice him up before he could say anything. And so he stood there some fifty meters away from the group, spending his time by looking around him slowly.

It took hours before the man in the middle of the group decided he had enough time to go for a look to see what in the hell this youth was wanting of him.

¨So...at least you have some courage to come up here...¨ The Emperor spoke to Xiao Fan, his tone weirdly normal, as in he wasn't ordering, nor was it angry.

'He might be too tired to give any care to me' Xiao Fan made reasoning which would explain his tone before talking in a low tone ¨I have a message for the... mother of the Second Prince¨ He spoke out.

¨A message for Yi Lin?¨

¨Yes. The Second Prince told me to bring this letter to her¨ Speaking this he took out the letter.

The Emperor took a look at the dirty letter for a moment, deeply thinking if this was worth it, but a few long seconds later he took the letter from Xiao Fan's hand ¨I don't know how you have this letter, but you should be running now if it isn't real¨

¨Not running. I'll stay here and wait¨

The Emperor took one more look at this message carrier as he was turning around to take the letter to Yi Lin.

'This was a thousand times easier than I thought' After the owner of that stare had left Xiao Fan could sigh in relief. He had very much so thought this would be a thousand times harder than simply bringing the letter all the way to the hand of the Emperor.

Next, after sighing and pondering a little, he focussed his eyes onto the group of women that were still weeping while the Emperor approached one of them. The one should be Yi Lin since the Emperor then handed over the letter Xiao Fan had given him to her.

Yi Lin, getting the letter was a weirded out for a moment, but soon when she was reading the letter, even Xiao Fan from so far could see the small spark appearing on the face of Yi Lin. Then by the next moment, he could see that she left the group of grieving women, and was now coming towards him.

Now seeing her a little closer Xiao Fan could say that Yi Lin was worthy of the tittle Queen, but after a quick thought, he shook his head and didn't focus more on her figures.
